What are SPC wall panels?

SPC stands for stone plastic composite. It is a rigid core of stone minerals and plastic that provides a strong and dimensionally stable wall panel. This stable structure makes SPC interesting for various wall applications, even in humid areas. You get a smooth finish with a modern appearance, in decors such as marble look, stone look or concrete look.

Why choose SPC wall panels?

SPC wall panels are often chosen because they provide a neat and low-maintenance finish. Since you are not working with a completely tiled surface full of joints, cleaning becomes easier and the wall looks calmer. For renovation, they are also interesting due to the limited build-up and the quick installation.

SPC wall panels can also be a logical choice in bathrooms and shower areas, provided that the installation is done correctly. Think of a flat and stable substrate, suitable adhesive, and a neat, waterproof finish of edges, corners, and joints. In many situations, installation over existing tiles is possible, as long as the substrate is solid and sufficiently even.

SPC or PVC wall panels?

Are you in doubt between SPC and PVC wall panels? SPC is generally stiffer and more dimensionally stable, which is handy for larger panels and a tight installation. PVC wall panels are often a bit more flexible, which can be an advantage in some renovations. The best choice depends on the substrate, the size, the desired finish, and the space in which you are working.

How do you attach SPC wall panels?

Preparing the substrate

Ensure a dry, clean, and sufficiently flat wall. Loose parts, dust, grease, and soap residues reduce adhesion and must be removed beforehand.

Making custom panels

Measure accurately and take into account profiles, taps, sockets and other cut-outs. Check the fit before permanently gluing the panels.

Mounting and sealing

Use a suitable adhesive according to the product specifications and installation guidelines. Finish joints, corners and edges correctly, especially in damp areas such as a bathroom or shower.

Maintenance of SPC wall panels

For daily maintenance, lukewarm water, a soft cloth and a mild cleaning agent are usually sufficient. Avoid abrasive or aggressive products. Since you do not need to scrub joints, maintenance remains manageable and the wall looks neat for longer.
